I use Funkwhale for my music collection and had my podcasts in there for a while. However, I ended up not listening to my podcasts very much since they were hidden among my much larger music collection.

So I moved my podcasts feeds to FreshRSS, which I was already using for RSS feeds. I like the simplicity of using something that I already had, but it doesn’t have any podcast-specific features like being able to resume where you left off.

Do you have any podcast listening apps that you like?

*edit: I should add that I originally meant “self-hostable applications for storing your podcast subscriptions,” but these phone app recommendations are great to have, too. I might just ditch the server-side of this entirely and just use a separate app on my devices for listening. It would be nice if I only had to subscribe in one place and be able to pick up where I left off across multiple devices, though.

    The ui is clean and intuitive and it actually handles podcasts with multiple feeds (patron/free) well (other apps I’ve used were quite annoying with that). Being able to tag all your podcasts is also really nice for organization, especially if you have a lot of podcasts that you aren’t listening to every episode of. My only complaint was that the default settings are to download a podcast when you click on it instead if stream, but that is easily changed with one setting switch

      I can’t say I’ve thought about how paid versions of a podcast would work on pocketcast
